Several log file names removed from default rsyslog.logrotate config file

[dylanmcculloch]

In commit 325b603 several log file names were removed from default /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog config file.

325b603#diff-5e2bda9fa3f8e4f724aceb9e715ee71778ddd65c8d7940cbd94b629db19955cb

We have noticed the issue with /var/log/daemon.log growing without rotation on several Ubuntu Noble servers running rsyslog 8.2312.0-3ubuntu9.1.

Was that a mistake or is there a reason those log names were removed from the default logrotate config?
